Played the majority of his league football at Filbert Street with Leicester City and still represents them in the Masters tournament. Played in the Welsh Premier League for both Carmarthen Town and Afan Lido and became coach at Port Talbot Town following the appointment of Tony Pennock as manager after a brief coaching role with the junior teams at Swansea City. Took over as caretaker manager following Tony Pennock’s resignation and claimed two victories in his only two Welsh Premier League games in charge before remaining as coach during Nicky Tucker’s first season.
